An Unusual Association with Conjunctival Malignant Melanoma
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Malignant melanoma of the conjunctiva is a rare condition. It is managed by local excision with or without supplementary cryotherapy. Despite an adequate excision, local recurrences are not uncommon. Systematic metastases occur to lung, liver, skin, bone or the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Metastasis to the genitourinary tract has rarely been reported. Simultaneous occurrence of conjunctival melanoma and transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder, however, has never been reported. Our case report, to the best of our knowledge, presents this association, for the first time.
